This weekend was the Duzi in Wesel, we started to drive to Wesel at 4.30. A really long way from Aichwald, a little Village near Stuttgart. It was a cool event, with many stores to buy miniatures, bases and stuff :D But there could have been some more painters. In the next year I want to see more of you!! :P

We, my cousin and me, won in some categories. The categories itself confused me a bit, so I entered my minis in first choice, because it was the first year there. But maybe.. I should have entered them in master. I say this because I never was a fan, if 1 person win, more then 2-3 prices :/ But don't get me wrong I am very happy with my DUZI's , just don't wanted to make an arrogant look.. an:)

My cousin is 12 years old, and he was the only person, who entered something in youngbloods, I think, the painting scene needs more young painters, I think the problem is that many kids, just don't know the hobby, I must think about what's to do versus this in the future :P

Overall a nice event, with many shops, nice engagement of the organizing team, nice prices and it was good to meet some friends, that I don't see very often. See you all at the events next year, I am thinking about some entries for diorama, duel... but much work. That's always easy to say, and very hard to finish :D

I wanted to show you pictures of the different entries. I saw some really great works there, from Trull, Brenda Gosman, Amber (sorry, I didn't remember your names right) and Thomas Woshh (sorry, I had to write this here :P ) and to the others, don't be angry with me, if I didn't wrote your names here.

Best regards Oli

P.s It might be possible, that I can't post so much in the next time, because I have important exams soon. But I know, I that I can't leave my brushes for a longer time, and the jungle too, for sure :)

I think if you've won a gold medal at another exhibition, like Duke of Bavaria, it's a good bet that you should be entering in master. When in doubt, you can always ask an organizer.

Anyways, glad that you had a good time! Please tell us what you entered (and show us, too, if you entered pieces which haven't already been posted here or on coolmini). Also, I'd love to see what your cousin entered too!

Hello Honourguard,thank you for the report. Please also post a picture of the YOUNGBLOOD! Wet brushes are always OK, but important exams are the "base" for your miniature painting.Good luck for your exams!!!

I was selling only on saturday and so i miss most of the people. Pinselknecht told me, that more painters are on sunday on the DuZi. Hope to see next year more of the painting folk ... :)Pictures from saturday you can find here:http://picasaweb.google.de/110474088920303567277/DuZi_2010?authkey=Gv1sRgCIa3vZHo-9-LHA
